“a loud voice”
-those
who we have stewardship for, particularly our immediate family members should
have no reason to question where we stand.
Our actions and words should be as a loud voice that proclaims the right
way to go. There are times when our
children, especially, will need to know of and to take strength from, our
unequivocal stance. In this way, we are
speaking with a loud (unmistakable, clear and certain) voice.
“come unto me"
-not
only is it important to follow/respond to this invitation, but we need to be
aware that we must be prepared (i.e. already progressed along the path
sufficiently so that we are qualified to invite others to come to where we then
are) to issue the invitation ourselves.
“Come” signifies that where the inviter is, is in the right
direction. Lehi could not have helped
his family if he had not already found the tree and partaken of its fruit. He had enabled himself to help others. What a terrible situation it would have been
had Lehi not known, himself, where to go or what to do!
